Santa Monica Multi-Unit Pickup, 311 & Curb Access
Santa Monica appliance removals often involve dense apartment and condo buildings where the challenge is getting a large refrigerator, range or laundry set from the unit to a legal loading point. Include the floor, elevator reservation process, garage height, doorway width, carrying distance and any building move hours before pickup is confirmed.
The City of Santa Monica separately offers bulky-item collection through its Recycling and Resource Recovery services and routes service requests through 311. That city collection is a different option from our qualification-based reuse pickup. If an appliance is not suitable for our route, residents can use the City’s current bulky-item instructions rather than leaving an item at the curb without a confirmed collection.

Santa Monica pickup requests are reviewed using the exact appliance condition and the real removal path. For apartments, condos, houses and garages, send the floor level, elevator or stair details, gate access, parking or loading notes and the carrying distance from the appliance to the pickup vehicle.
Working-condition proof
For refrigerators and freezers, include interior and exterior photos plus current cooling condition. For washers and dryers, report the tested wash, spin, tumble and heat functions.
Access details before scheduling
Tell us about stairs, elevator reservations, garage clearance, narrow doorways, gates or restricted loading so the request can be matched to the right route.
Qualification stays transparent
Free pickup is not automatic. Working major appliances receive priority, while repair, nonworking and unknown-condition requests are reviewed based on the full load and current demand.
